Tungsten2021 will be held at the Walt Disney World Swan and Dolphin Resort in Orlando, Florida, June 20–23, 2021. Registration is open at Tungsten2021.org. 

The program for the virtual MIM2021: International Conference on Injection Molding of Metals, Ceramics and Carbides, the only international powder and metal injection molding conference of the year, will feature two keynote presentations. MIM2021 will attract a global audience, showcasing the latest advances in this dynamic technology. The virtual conference and exhibition conference will take place February 22-25, 2021, and presentations will be available on demand through March 5.

Due to continued concerns regarding the global COVID-19 pandemic, the MIM2021 International Conference on Injection Molding of Metals, Ceramics and Carbides that was to be held February 22-24, 2021 in West Palm Beach, Florida, will now be held virtually.  West Palm Beach will host the MIM2022 conference.  

“It is disappointing that the powder metallurgy industry will miss another opportunity to meet in person due to COVID-19,” reflected James P. Adams, MPIF Executive Director/CEO. “Our industry desires to meet, network, and discuss ongoing R&D to advance the technology.  However, the health and safety of our industry is paramount, so MIM2021 will be held as a virtual conference.”
